Meet the Seven Sparks…
Growing up on fairy tales and computer games, Anthea Sharp has melded the two in her award-winning, USA Today bestselling Feyland series.

When not imagining new stories, she hangs out in virtual worlds, plays the fiddle with her Celtic band Fiddlehead, and spends time with her small-but-good family. Explore her world and the magic of her award-winning series by visiting her website.
Terah Edun is a young adult fantasy writer born and raised in the Atlanta metropolitan area, who transplanted to the Northeast region for college, and has spent years living abroad in South Sudan and Morocco.

Brenda Hiatt is the New York Times bestselling author of twenty novels (so far), including traditional Regency romance, time travel romance, historical romance, and humorous mystery. She is as excited about her STARSTRUCK series as she’s ever been about any of her books, which is saying something! In addition to writing, Brenda is passionate about embracing life to the fullest, to include scuba diving (she has over 60 dives to her credit), Taekwondo (where she is currently pursuing her 3rd degree black belt), hiking, traveling, and reading, of course! You can find out more at her Brenda Hiatt website (or this one, of course!)
Bestselling author Allie Burton’s stories rock with adventure and romance. From real places to made up worlds, from first love to united souls, from suspense to fantasy…but always to the tune of love. Her tales take you under the ocean in the Lost Daughters of Atlantis series and through mythical legends and relics in the Soul Force series. Allie currently lives in Colorado with her husband and teen inspirations. You can learn more about Allie and her books on her website.
Cidney Swanson is an award-winning writer of Young Adult Sci-Fi and Fantasy including The Ripple Trilogy and The Saving Mars Series. SAVING MARS (Kirkus, starred) was named to Kirkus Reviews’ Best of 2012 and was an honor book for the SCBWI Spark Award 2014. When she’s not writing, Cidney is distracted by shiny things such as books with raised foil covers, macarons in jars, and stars set against an inky night sky. She lives in Eugene, Oregon with her husband, three kids, two cats, and entirely too much rain. Please check out her website.
